North Glasgow A Community Health and Wellbeing Profile for North Glasgow February 2008 Published by Glasgow Centre for Population Health Level 6 39 St Vincent Place Glasgow G1 2ER For further information please contact: Bruce Whyte, Glasgow Centre for Population Health Tel: 0141 221 9439 Email: [email protected] Web: www.gcph.co.uk/communityprofiles Contents Introduction 1 Purpose 1 Geographical coverage 2 Content 2 Notes and caveats 4 Local action to improve health and reduce inequalities 5 Evaluation 5 Acknowledgements 5 Web 6 Interpretation 6 Maps 9 Community Health Partnership Area Map 11 Greenspace Map 13 Air Quality Map 15 Fuel Poverty Map 17 Trend and Spine Graphs 19 Definitions and Sources 43 A Community Health and Wellbeing Profile for North Glasgow Introduction This profile is one of ten new community health and wellbeing profiles that have been compiled by the Glasgow Centre for Population Health (GCPH) for the Greater Glasgow and Clyde NHS Board area. Each profile provides indicators for a range of health outcomes (e.g. life expectancy, mortality, hospitalisation) and health determinants (e.g. smoking levels, breastfeeding, income, employment, crime, education). These profiles build on the success of both the 2004 community health profiles published by NHS Health Scotland (www.scotpho.org.uk/communityprofiles), and of the ‘Let Glasgow Flourish’ report published by GCPH in April 2006 (www.gcph.co.uk/content/view/17/34/). Whilst these sources continue to be useful, there has been recognition of the need for more up-to-date health data and for information pertaining to the new Community Health (and Care) Partnership (CH(C)P) administrative structures. It is also worth noting that ISD Scotland plans to publish similar profiles for CH(C)Ps in the rest of Scotland later in 2008, and that staff in NHS Health Scotland are working on children’s health profiles, which are also to be published later in the year. Edgefauld Road North Glasgow CHCP Offices Purpose This community health and wellbeing profile is intended to inform service providers, planners, policy makers and the public about public health issues, both locally and at national level. Specifically, we have designed each profile to: provide organisations and communities with up-to-date and locally-relevant public health intelligence; highlight health and social inequalities; show trends in key indicators; provide local level information to aid priority-setting and the targeting of resources; and develop knowledge of the complex nature of health and its determinants. While the profile information may prove valuable for a variety of planning processes, it is not the intention that these data are seen as part of any formal performance monitoring system. Rather, we hope this type of health intelligence will help inform planning priorities and illuminate emergent issues. A Community Health and Wellbeing Profile for North Glasgow Geographical coverage Each profile covers a Community Health (and Care) Partnership area within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde. Health indicators are presented for the overall ‘community’ but also for smaller areas within each CH(C)P. In Glasgow City, these smaller areas are ‘neighbourhood’1 localities, while outside Glasgow – in the rest of the Greater Glasgow and Clyde area – intermediate zone geographies2 are used3. These localities were chosen through consultation and enable geographical inequalities in social circumstances and health within each CH(C)P area to be investigated. Table 1 describes the neighbourhoods within the North Glasgow community and their populations. Table 1: Neighbourhoods within the North Glasgow community and their populations Neighbourhood Population (2006) Balornock and Barmulloch 7,458 Blackhill and Hogganfield 3,611 Kelvindale and Kelvinside 9,301 Lambhill and Milton 12,777 Maryhill Road Corridor 12,848 North Maryhill and Summerston 12,121 Robroyston and Millerston 5,262 Ruchill and Possilpark 9,151 Sighthill, Roystonhill and Germiston 12,802 Springburn 14,623 Content Each community profile comprises a series of maps, together with trend and ‘spine’ graphs of health indicators for each neighbourhood/intermediate zone in a community and for the community as a whole. The indicators used are similar to those used in the 2004 profiles, although many of those used previously have new and slightly different definitions, and thus are not directly comparable with the previous profiles. A number of new indicators have also been included. Please refer to the notes pages for detailed information about all the indicators used in this profile. Maps There are three or four maps included in each profile, depending on the community covered: a large map of the whole community, showing the locations of GP practices, Social Work offices and hospitals, and the boundaries (and names) of the neighbourhood/intermediate zones within; a map of urban greenspace; smaller maps showing PM10 and NO2 concentrations4 in the Greater Glasgow and Clyde area; and a fuel poverty map (only for Glasgow CHCPs). 1 There are 55 ‘neighbourhood’ areas (as defined for Housing Forums) within Glasgow City, ranging in population size from 1,400 to 19,500. 2 The intermediate zones are aggregations of data zones within local authorities and contain between 2,500 and 6,000 people. 3 For both neighbourhoods and intermediate zones, and for CH(C)Ps, data can be built up by aggregating from data zone level. More information on data zones can be obtained at www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2004/02/18917/33243. 4 PM10: particles in ambient air smaller than 10 micrometres across; NO2: Nitrogen Dioxide. Graphs The trend graphs show trends over time for the following indicators: male life expectancy; female life expectancy; population age groups; worklessness; breastfeeding; and rates of hospital admissions for alcohol related and attributable conditions, heart disease and medical emergencies. The spine graphs show how an area compares to Scotland5 on a range of indicators covering the following broad domains: population demographics; mortality; drugs, alcohol and smoking; hospitalisation and injury; mental health and function; Social Work; prosperity/poverty; education; crime; housing and transport; and child and maternal health. For each of the 67 indicators included within these domains the percentage difference from the Scottish figure is displayed graphically, alongside the value of the indicator itself shown both as a number (e.g. a population of 19,982 children) and as a percentage or rate (e.g. children as a percentage of the total population). A summary table with definitions and sources of each indicator used is provided at the end of the profile. More detailed notes accompany excel workbooks for each indicator, which are available on-line at www.gcph.co.uk/communityprofiles. 5 For some indicators, where national information is not available, the comparator used is not Scotland but Greater Glasgow and Clyde or Glasgow City. This is marked on a column adjacent to the graph e.g. G for Glasgow City, etc. A Community Health and Wellbeing Profile for North Glasgow Partick Thistle Springburn Park Pond Sighthill Notes and caveats We would ask the reader to consider the following points when using this profile: Some rates are based on small numbers, particularly in areas with small populations. Large above/below average percentages for these variables should be interpreted with caution and knowledge of local circumstances should be applied to aid interpretation. In the main, annualised figures and rates are shown. However, where necessary, an indicator may have been based on more than one year of data to provide more robust figures for small areas. The notes box at the bottom of each spine chart provides further explanation in relation to specific indicators. To avoid disclosure of personal information we have in some instances suppressed figures representing less than five cases but not zero (e.g. between one and four), although in most instances we have shown a rate for the same indicator if this is a standardised rate. Thereby, the original number of cases cannot be derived. Some of the variations seen may be due to the structure of the population within an area. Please refer to the top three population indicators in a spine graph for an area to compare the age structure of each local population with the national average. Variations in recording/coding practice and proximity to services, particularly in relation to hospital admissions, may account for some of the differences in rates observed between different areas. Our approach has been to use, in the first instance, nationally available, comparable data within each profile. However, in addition, we have included other relevant information from local sources (e.g. some of the crime figures, Social Work clients, and small area household estimates). Despite this there are still significant ‘data gaps’, where data sources are either not sufficiently accurate or data are not recorded in enough geographic detail to be shown at a small area level (e.g. homelessness, physical activity, and obesity). The indicators used cover different periods (the chart axis labels and notes pages will provide details) and we have derived several indicators from the 2001 Census if suitable and more up- to-date measures were not available and the indicator was felt to be of sufficient importance (e.g. percentage of population from a minority ethnic group). It should be noted that the indicators used in the profile are summary indicators. More detailed analysis of each would be possible, for example producing breakdowns by gender or age or examining trends. If you wish to analyse particular themes in more detail please contact GCPH directly by emailing [email protected] or telephoning 0141 221 9439. Finally, any factual inaccuracy in the information presented in this profile is the sole responsibility of GCPH. Local action to improve health and reduce health inequalities We have not attempted to describe the range of policies, priorities, services and local health improvement initiatives that are relevant to each community.

  • The Glasgow Academy WW1 Roll of Honour
    The Glasgow Academy WW1 Roll of Honour From the onset of the First World War in 1914 until 1918, the Glasgow Academy suffered a great many losses during the conflict. In fact, it is believed there was a higher number of losses incurred when compared to other independent schools of the time. The following is a list of the former pupils who were casualties and as far as we have been able to, includes information and photographs to tell the stories of these men. In some case, we have little or no information about some of these individuals, so please get in touch if you have anything which could help us fill in the gaps and help us tell their stories.

  • Wyndford, Collina Street and Other Areas Including Ruchill, Ruchazie and Pollok
    Cube Housing Association Investing In Our Futures www.cubehousing.co.uk Our local plan at Cube for the next five years For Wyndford, Collina Street, Ruchill, Ruchazie and Pollok Cube’s new five-year strategy, ‘Investing In Our Futures’, has been shaped by listening to feedback from our tenants about what is important to them. This leaflet tells you what this means for you and your local area between now and 2020. It sets out what local people told us their priorities were and what we plan to do in your community over the next five years. This leaflet covers the communities of Wyndford, Collina Street and other areas including Ruchill, Ruchazie and Pollok. What you told us In developing the plan, we engaged with customers through our ‘We’re here to help’ campaign, talking to people who live in our communities and capturing customers’ views on what we can do to make further improvements. Customers raised concerns about the environment and what people think of the Wyndford area. Over 250 customers attended an open day to give us their views. Better homes, better lives We’ve put forward ambitious plans that will transform this area. We have applied for funding from Scottish Government and Scottish Heritage Fund, which, if successful, will be matched by Cube’s parent company, Wheatley Group. Customers told us it was costing them a lot to contact Cube by phone. We have created a new freephone number – 0800 027 3456 – which is free from mobiles and landlines and is available 24 hour a day, 365 days a year.

  • Glasgow Life Update on Venues Not Yet Scheduled for Re-Opening - April 2021
    Glasgow Life update on venues not yet scheduled for re-opening - April 2021 The global pandemic of Covid-19 has forced significant changes to how Glasgow Life operates. We are maximising the impact of the funding available in spite of reduced capacities in venues. We know how much people value our services. We are working hard to reopen venues wherever possible and the list below details the venues for which we are currently exploring future options. We want community assets that are fit for purpose for the ever-changing needs of our communities. Glasgow has led the way in reimagining our community assets and delivering improved models of co-location to increase usage and engagement and some of our services may move to new venues in the local community. The benefits of co-location have been well accepted for a number of years now across Glasgow as a creative way of maximising the scope and impact of important community services by sharing some operational requirements and costs. Examples of this include Milton where the Glasgow Club Gym and local library are based in the same building attached to the local school; Springburn where the local gym, swimming pool and library are based together or in Pollok where Glasgow Club facilities, the local library, a small community museum space and the local health centre are all housed under one roof. Where a service has been moved, the Council and Glasgow Life will continue to explore viable and positive uses for the city’s heritage buildings in line with Glasgow City Council’s ‘Heritage Asset Strategy 2019-2029’1.
